“…In the present study, being male, older ages, and long commuting times were associated with a statistically significant shift in hearing thresholds in a sample of healthy Mexican adults. Although hearing thresholds in this population did not meet the criteria to be considered as hearing loss and were within normal limits, even at older ages 13 , the audiometric pattern resembles that of noise-induced hearing loss, characterized by a drop in hearing thresholds at 4000 and 6000 Hz and a recovery at 8000 Hz, which has been identified to a larger extent in populations exposed to industrial noise 14,15 . In addition, the audiometric curve in subjects aged 45 years or older did not show any presbycusis pattern, as it would be expected in older adult populations, which suggests a possible role of noise in our findings (Figs.…”

Introduction: Long commute times are common in big cities. Objective: To determine hearing thresholds and their association with commute time in Mexico City. Methods: Cross-sectional study that included 177 healthy adults from 2009 to 2011. Demographic information and commute times were recorded. Hearing was assessed by audiometry. Regression models were constructed to determine the predictors of hearing thresholds. Results: There were 101 men (53%) and 76 women (43%). Mean commute time was 43 minutes (1-150 minutes). A hearing threshold drop was observed at 4000 Hz, with recovery at 8000 Hz in both ears when patients were stratified by gender and age groups. A commute time > 40 min/day increased the hearing threshold at 4000 Hz (β = 2.96 dB HL, p < 0.01). Men had higher thresholds (β = 2.6 dB HL), as older subjects also did: [25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34] β = 2.2 dB HL;[35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44] β = 5.2 dB HL; and ≥ 45 years, β = 8.3 dB HL. Conclusion:The hearing pattern, although normal, resembled that of noise-induced hearing loss, associated with long commute times.

“…Aun cuando los umbrales auditivos en esta población no cumplieron con los criterios para ser considerados como pérdida auditiva y se encontraron dentro de los límites normales incluso para edades mayores, 13 el patrón auditivo se asemeja al de la pérdida auditiva inducida por ruido, caracterizada por la caída de los umbrales auditivos en 4000 y 6000 Hz y con recuperación en 8000 Hz, que se ha identificado en mayor medida en población expuesta a ruido industrial. 14,15 Además, la curva audiométrica en sujetos de 45 años o más no mostró ningún patrón de presbiacusia, como se esperaría en la población adulta mayor, lo que sugiere un posible papel del ruido en nuestros hallazgos (Figuras 1 a 3). Por último, las mujeres presentaron mejores patrones auditivos que los hombres, como se ha reportado anteriormente.…”

ResumenObjetivo. Determinar la prevalencia de discapacidad auditiva (DA) y visual (DV) en adultos del estado de Tlaxcala, México. Material y métodos. Estudio transversal de base poblacional realizado en 2013 que incluye sujetos ≥50 años de edad. La DA se evaluó por autorreporte con el cuestionario Hearing Impairment Inventory for the Elderly (SHIIE); la DV se midió usando la cartilla E rotatoria de Snellen. Resultados. Se evaluaron 900 mujeres y 611 hombres (media=66.1 años). El 31.8% (481) tenía DA (415 sola y 66 con DV). La prevalencia de DA sola o con DV se asoció con edad (por cada dos años, RM=1.03 y RM=1.18, respectivamente) y con autorreporte del estado de salud deficiente (RM=1.90 y RM=3.69, respectivamente). Conclusiones. Se requiere la implementación de intervenciones en salud pública que reduzcan el impacto de estas dos condiciones en la población.Palabras clave: pérdida auditiva; trastornos de la visión; prevalencia Abstract Objective. To determinate the prevalence of hearing loss (HL) and visual impairment (VI) among adult population from Tlaxcala, Mexico. Materials and methods. A populationbased cross-sectional study comprising persons 50 years and older was conducted in 2013. Self-reported HL was measured using the Hearing Impairment Inventory for the Elderly (SHIIE) questionnaire; VI was determined using the Snellen tumbling E chart. Results. 900 women and 611 men (mean age 66.1 years) were included. 481(31.8%) individuals had HL (415 alone and 66 combined with VI). Prevalence of HL alone and together with VI was associated with age (per two years, OR=1.03 and OR=1.18, respectively) and self-reported poor health status (OR=1.90 and OR=3.69, respectively). Conclusion. The high prevalence of these disabilities calls for the implementation of public health interventions that help to reduce its impact in the population.
